BoxZ 35092

Rectangular cedar box in the characteristic kerfed style. The box has a lip at the rear of the removable lid. The front and two sides have grooved panels while the back is plain. The edges have been bent and one edge pegged closed using wooden pegs. At the top of the two sides are two pairs of holes suggesting the box may have had a handle. Around the box is cedar bark rope tied in a net-like manner which was used to secure the lid in place. The cedar bark rope is rather frayed and fragile. The box appears to have been used judging by its external appearance, while inside the box is in relatively good condition. Inside the packing box is a piece of wood with a flange round three sides and two notches cut into the other. One side of the wood is painted with black stripes. This piece of wood does not appear to be connected with the box, and does not have an accession number, it is a mystery (G.Crowther).; Good
